DUMB PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTION OF THE DAY: Is there really anything to the concept of "knowing yourself" (or, by extension, "finding yourself")? Doesn't everyone, bar certifiably delusional people, know who they are? When people "find themselves," are they not really changing who they are? Who we are is defined by our thoughts and experiences, and is changing from any one instant to the next, right? Does that mean we always know who we are, or that we never really are?
Oh, well. The thing with philosophy is that it rarely, if ever, has any practical application. Neither do most things I'm interested in, though.
